Welcome to the GWTW Forum.Guests (non-registered users) can view the forum but are unable to post. If you don't have anything to say then why would you bother to register?One of the most popular sections of the GWTW Forum has long been the Swap Meet. A great place to sell old, seldom flown kites or to get great deals on used (gently flown) kites. Only registered users can see the Swap Meet section, let alone wheel and deal. 1000's (literally) of kites have changed hands thanks to the Swap Meet.There are several more benefits to being a registered user, but you'll have to join our little community to find out all the "secrets".Questions or concerns?

Nice flying and I read one of the post. I am going to six or seven..then maybe I won't choke on four. But you showed a good example of how Norm does them... I run all over the place... Nice camera shots. and nice yellow kite..

You should know by now the only way you will ever do advanced tricks is with a pair of Tim's 19mm Knuckle Dusters.

Probably the best UK sourced finger straps in the world (to misquote Carlsberg), but then I might have less than an unbiased view on them. Worth the investment Steve, not that they will turn you into a 'ninja' flyer, but they certainly won't get in the way. Other makes of finger straps are available of course, and may be just as good or better, eh Norm.

Norm,You a bit wrong on that one. Yes.. Wayne is a class act on his congratulations...

Your the "Real" class act. Offering the challenge in the first place. I am proud to know you. I know even though I have not concluded the challenge (video4) ...One day I will. I and others who have tried to meet the challenge some times miss the point. We learned a new trick..

Norm you have introduced a new trick to a lot of people. Many of us probably do Really Nice "Double" AVFFF. I know sometimes I can do one when ever I feel like it. Not 4. But that is the beauty of it. I like that it's a trick I do.

For many of us the true Class Act is you. The West Coast guys are having a ball with it. East coast is biting at the bit. The spring will bring a number of guys trying to learn the trick. With full instructions by you becuase you Care...

Just a guy who Cares... That's a Class Act ... You offer the prize which everyone knows my feelings towards. The real prize is we learned a New Trick... But you have encouraged so many to try... There is No telling how many guys will post on this thread all summer long. Or how many more Straps your going to make. Come spring we may need another "Challenege"... (how bout' 540's),,

These challenges from Norm are great, it gives a lot of us something to shoot for and in my case, to learn a trick I never knew existed. I'd write a longer post on this subject but we have partly cloudy skies and low winds, I'm outa here! Going to the field to work on the AVFFF as well as some other tricks.

I'm hoping to have a video of me doing 4 AVFFF's by next weekend if the weather cooperates. I had a very productive day at the field today doing a set of 3 AVFFF's 3 times, one set of 4 but I hit the ground on the fourth and I completed a set of five!! Thats right, 1-2-3-4-5!! I will try to prove this next weekend with a camera. I just hope I don't crack under the pressure.

Hey Norm, I'm still trying, but I'm getting rusty from lack of flying... you can see 2 poor attempts in my 'Snow Devil' video at 1:47 and 2:45. I think I might also have a better chance if the wind were over 2mph.
